Seasonal dynamics of DNA and RNA viral bioaerosol communities in a daycare center

Microbiome, 2019
Background Viruses play an important role in ecosystems, including the built environment (BE). While numerous studies have characterized bacterial and fungal microbiomes in the BE, few have focused on the viral microbiome (virome).

Next-generation sequencing in dermatology

Frontiers in Medicine, 2023
Over the past decade, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has advanced our understanding, diagnosis, and management of several areas within dermatology. NGS has emerged as a powerful tool for diagnosing genetic diseases of the skin, improving upon traditional PCR-based techniques limited by significant genetic heterogeneity associated with these disorders.

Genomic Analysis of Rwandan G9P[8] Rotavirus Strains Pre- and Post-RotaTeq^® Vaccine Reveals Significant Distinct Sub-Clustering in a Post-Vaccination Cohort

Viruses, 2023
Although the introduction of rotavirus vaccines has substantially contributed to the reduction in rotavirus morbidity and mortality, concerns persist about the re-emergence of variant strains that might alter vaccine effectiveness in the long term.

Next-Generation Sequencing Technologies [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2018
Although DNA and RNA sequencing has a history spanning five decades, large-scale massively parallel sequencing, or next-generation sequencing (NGS), has only been commercially available for about 10 years. Nonetheless, the meteoric increase in sequencing throughput with NGS has dramatically changed our understanding of our genome and ourselves ...

Next generation sequencing technologies for next generation plant breeding [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
As a term, “next generation plant breeding” is increasingly becoming popular in crop breeding programmes, conferences, scientific fora and social media (Schnable, 2013). Being a frontier area of crop science and business, it is gaining considerable interest among scientific community and policymakers and funds flow from entrepreneurs and research ...

Defining Culture Conditions for the Hidden Nitrite-Oxidizing Bacterium Nitrolancea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nitrification is a key process for N-removal in engineered and natural environments, but recent findings of novel nitrifying microorganisms with surprising features revealed that our knowledge of this functional guild is still incomplete.

Neuroinflammation regulates the balance between hippocampal neuron death and neurogenesis in an ex vivo model of thiamine deficiency

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background Thiamine (vitamin B1) is a cofactor for enzymes of central energy metabolism and its deficiency (TD) impairs oxidative phosphorylation, increases oxidative stress, and activates inflammatory processes that can lead to neurodegeneration ...

The Evolution of Post-Vaccine G8P[4] Group a Rotavirus Strains in Rwanda; Notable Variance at the Neutralization Epitope Sites

Pathogens, 2023
Africa has a high level of genetic diversity of rotavirus strains, which is suggested to be a possible reason contributing to the suboptimal effectiveness of rotavirus vaccines in this region.

Advancements in Next-Generation Sequencing [PDF]

Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2016
The term next-generation sequencing is almost a decade old, but it remains the colloquial way to describe highly parallel or high-output sequencing methods that produce data at or beyond the genome scale. Since the introduction of these technologies, the number of applications and methods that leverage the power of genome-scale sequencing has ...
